Our scrap metal shredder is an essential machine for recycling plants that need to reduce the size of various metal and waste materials. This equipment uses cutting, tearing, and squeezing forces to process bulky items into smaller, uniform pieces for easy transportation, sorting, or further recycling.
What Is a Scrap Metal Shredder?
The industrial metal shredder is a multifunctional shredding machine designed to handle a wide range of materials. It works through the combined actions of shredding blades that pull, shear, and compress the material. Once processed, the final output is discharged from the bottom of the shredding chamber.
If needed, customers can add a round screen to control the final size of the shredded material.
Versatile Shredding Capability for Multiple Materials
This double shaft shredder is suitable for a wide range of metal and non-metal waste, making it ideal for recycling plants, scrap yards, and solid waste processing facilities.
Common materials include:
- Aluminum cans and paint buckets
- Steel scraps and light metal waste
- Car shells and motorcycle shells
- Waste household appliance shells
- Large pipes, pipe fittings, forklift pallets
- Tires, aluminum, copper
- Iron materials under 5 mm thickness
- Waste circuit boards and waste cables
Apart from metal waste, the metal recycling shredder can also process municipal waste, household waste, kitchen waste, e-waste, rubber, plastics, and general solid waste. The final output is uniform, and the discharge size can be adjusted when equipped with a screening system.
How Does the Scrap Metal Shredder Work?
Material enters the shredder through the feeding system. Inside the shredding chamber, rotating blades grip and pull the material toward the cutters. With continuous tearing, shearing, and compressing, the material is reduced into small, manageable pieces.
The shredded pieces fall through the bottom outlet or through a screen if size control is required.
